Terrorism Strikes Domain Capital

The attacks appear to have been aimed mainly at the nobility,
particularly those close to Archduke Norris. Among the dead are
Judi Tarrassi, Countess of Maitz; Elinor DaLana,
Countess of Brodie; Gratha and
Alania Delrio, Count and Countess of Nexine; and Alin Wardammer,
Marquis of Meleto.

A further assassination attempt was thwarted, at the wedding reception
of Baron Bridgehead, Lord Rorise at the Ducal palace. It is not
currently known who would
have been the target as it was well attended by Norris
supporters. Kalida Siena, Marchioness of Nakege, is credited with
preventing this through the actions of her entourage, including Sir
Misha Ravanos.

In addition to the assassinations, four bombs exploded
in the capital city itself, destroying apartment buildings which were
the residences of several local nobility. It was not immediately
known whether some of those nobles were killed or simply offworld at
the time, and the list of casualties is being withheld until it can be
confirmed. It is believed that around 720 people were killed in
those explosions.

A fifth device was found and disabled by Imperial Intelligence.

The titles in question are now taken by the designated heirs: Jorgi and
Alise DaLana, Count and Countess of Brodie; Helga Delrio, Countess of
Nexine; and Alixya Wardammer, Marchioness of Meleto. The title of
Count of Maitz remains open as there was no heir.
